Emmet Preferences
Emmet is a framework that enables the lightning-fast creation of HTML code though the use of
a simple and effective shortcut language resembling CSS Selectors (see "Emmet" on
page109). The Emmet functionality is available in the HTML and CSS source editors of
Connect Designer. Emmet transforms abbreviations for HTML elements and CSS properties to
the respective source code.
This is, for example, the abbreviation for a <div> element with the class row:
div.row
On pressing the Tab key, this abbreviation is transformed to:
<div class="row"></div>
To learn more about Emmet itself, please see their website Emmet.io and the Emmet.io
documentation.
